USA is in a lot of homes. I bet that rating will actually go up more as they add more focus to the show.

Mauro Renallo + Jerry "The King" Lawler heel turn = ratings.
Glad to hear this did well, but then USA's usually done well on Thursdays.

First week watching at least until the main event. Boy, Mauro really is good. I've never actually heard him before. May have to watch more often now.

I'm hoping the rise continues as I often enjoy SD, even more so now the commentary is a lot better and you get to see guys like Styles and Kalisto and Owens have good matches.
The fact that they're building up to a big match - Jericho and AJ - next week on SD instead of doing it on Raw is a good sign and one I hope benefits them with a growing rating.

You know once upon a time, Smackdown was viewed as the superior show, WWE promptly nerfed it.

Pretty surprised at the drop, considering they were advertising AJ Styles vs. Chris Jericho for a whole week. But then again, repeatedly telling viewers that AJ is small and is "good but not great" = AJ not being a TV draw.

Except without the play-by-play, there's no telling what drew and what didn't.

No one knew Renallo was absent. The show's booking has been stronger than it has in years, so not a big surprise if they were able to maintain ratings this week.

Good to hear it didn't have a steep drop at all. They seem to be doing a lot better since getting put on USA.
